Gongju Sanseong Market
Gongju Sanseong Market: this Saturday (Sat, Oct 31) the area around it looks busier than usual (index 89).
Opened in 1937, this expansive market features a variety of items across its five sections. It is conveniently located near tourist attractions like Gongju National Museum, Gongsanseong Fortress, and Tomb of King Muryeong. The arcade-style roof allows for comfortable exploration in any weather or season. The Food Alley offers an irresistible selection of local delicacies, making it hard to choose from options like gimbap, banquet noodles, and bulgogi. Not to be missed are Gongju's specialties: chestnut makgeolli (rice wine) and chestnut sweet rice cake, made from local chestnuts.
